The Siq (Arabic: السيق‎, transliterated al-Sīq, transcribed as-Sīq,[a] literally 'the Shaft') is the main entrance to the ancient Nabatean city of Petra in southern Jordan. Also known as Siqit, the main entrance in Petra is a dim, narrow gorge (in some points no more than 3 metres (10 ft) wide) winds its way approximately 1.2 kilometres (0.75 mi) and ends at Petra's most elaborate ruin, Al Khazneh (the Treasury). A wide valley outside leading to the Siq is known as the Bab as-Sīq (Gateway to the Siq).
Unlike slot canyons like Antelope Canyon, which are directly shaped by water, the Siq is a natural geological fault split apart by tectonic forces; only later was it worn smooth by water. The walls that enclose the Siq stand between 91–182 metres (299–597 ft) in height.]
The entrance to the Siq contains a huge dam, reconstructed in 1963 and again in 1991, designed to bar the mouth of the Siq and reroute the waters of Wadi Musa. The dam is a fairly true reconstruction of what the Nabataeans did to control Wadi Musa between the 1st century BC and the beginning of the 1st century AD. The entrance also contains the remnants of a monumental arch, of which only the two abutments and some hewn stones of the arch itself have survived. The arch collapsed in 1896 following an earthquake, but its appearance is known from the lithographs of Matthew Boulby and David Roberts.
The Siq was used as the grand caravan entrance into Petra. Along both walls of the fissure are a number of votive niches containing baetyli, which suggest that the Siq was sacred to the Nabatean people. In 1998, a group of statues were uncovered when digging was conducted to lower the road by more than six feet. Although the upper part is greatly eroded, it is still possible to recognise the figures of two merchants, each leading two camels. The figures are almost twice lifesize.
Along the Siq are some underground chambers, the function of which has not yet been clarified. The possibility that they were tombs has been excluded, and archaeologists find it difficult to believe that they were dwellings. The majority consensus is that they housed the guards that defended the main entrance to Petra.

I took this one while sitting on a rock catching my breath after running for the in the glass photos I put up earlier.
Another in my album series 'Traditional English Country Pubs', The Four Points Inn dates from the 17th century and is one of two splendid such buildings in the very small village of Aldworth, West Berkshire. The village's other pub, The Bell Inn, was built in the 15th century or even earlier. Both pubs are very friendly and definitely worth a visit.
As we approach the election of 2024, something that is on everyone's minds is freedom. As in, what does it mean, and will we still enjoy it after the results of the election are announced. Yale professor Timothy Snyder has written a book on the subject called "On Freedom". I've read it twice this season. It's one of the most important books I've ever read. My entries for this Polaroid Week are based on interpretations of points made in his book.
Snyder posits that there is a difference in conceptions of freedom, one of which is negative freedom, which can be thought of as "freedom from", and positive freedom, or "freedom to". Postive freedom is about enabling free people to live their lives to the fullest, and negative freedom is about preventing anything from preventing you from doing whatever you want. Positive freedom leads to democracy. Negative freedom leads in the opposite direction.
There are five components to positive freedom in Snyder's estimation. The first of these is Sovereignty. Each person is sovereign over their own selves. They are responsible for their own being, their own decisions, their own beliefs. The task of a parent raising a child is to teach them to be a sovereign being, capable of judging right from wrong and living their life in a way that is true to themselves.
My first entry for Polaroid Week represents Sovereignty with a mixed media piece, one of my construction paper people on Polaroid Retinex Type-I film, with a piece of construction paper glued onto the frame so it extends outside the circular frame of the Retinex film.

Last summer we had an unexpected weekend in Dinan in France when our classic VW campervan broke down on the way to the ferry home. Burnt out ignition points were the problem but parts for a 44 year old VW take time to arrive so we had a few days of hotel luxury waiting for the part to be delivered from the UK. I carry a couple of spare sets in Katy the Camper now, along with a few other bits and pieces. You have to have a different attitude when living with Katy as she clearly believes, 'La joie est de voyage de ne pas arriver.'
Another from my recent trip to Crater Lake, Oregon. This one is a six-shot panorama. Had a lot of trouble getting the usual software packages to stitch this one together, but was finally able to do it with some manually entered control points in the PTGui software.
I've wanted this shot for some time, and am really happy with how it turned out! Now I just need to return there someday when there's more & cleaner snow... and maybe with a D800E instead of my D700! :-)
Oh, and this shot is today's (June 19, 2013) NASA Astronomy Photo of the Day (APOD):
Bryce Canyon is reminiscent of a massive pipe organ filling the valley walls - but instead of producing a tremendous and harmonious sound for the ears, it becomes an allure and fascination for the eyes. In the morning light, the pinnacles glow in a variety of reds, golds and whites; while the repeating patterns of the spires create a texture that has a visual vibration.
